Official Goliath Thread
Hmmm... I purchased a shirt. Where's my ticket? I was told they still have some left.
I bought my shirt on Wednesday and got a ticket! Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 using Tapatalk
I bought a shirt the same day. No ticket.
I went Wednesday and a staff member working the floor in Carousel Gifts approach me when I was checking out the Goliath shirts and told me about the ERT session if I bought one. I'm kind of regretting not buying one since there won't be a pass holder preview anymore, but I didn't care for any of the shirt designs and I left my wallet in the car.

So since they are listing first rides on June 1 @11:59 (June 2) w/T-shirt purchasre... is Monday June 2 the Opening date now?
Was hoping for Friday the 30th or next weekend (31-1).. Guess that is why they cancelled SP ERT. If this was already answered, let me know...hard to read all the posts on a phone.
I am so mad argh gotta tell my friend in MN to not come down because they aren't having the dumb pass holder preview.

I got my tickets and was told the receipt had to be with the tickets when I come to the park that day.

Oh boo hoo!!!! Sorry, but if you are mad because they wont have SP ERT, you need to relax. Personally, I think it's B.S. that they offered that to begin with. People paying one day admission tickets shouldn't have to sit and watch while SP holders ride a new ride.

Hey Chitown sorry man it just sort of screwed things up for myself my family and my friends. This ride is so hyped and it is just an inconvenience for US. So again I'm not pouting just a bit frustrated considering already had to reschedule twice. Only expressing my opinion so please don't mock me.
Really man? We are just a bit upset because they said they were doing it and now are pulling back. I don't see why you have a problem with season pass holders getting a few extra benefits. I would think it would benefit the park too because I saw countless people go and upgrade their one day tickets to season passes back when X-Flight had a pass holder preview. I'm fine with waiting a few extra days, just wished they would've had a preview. That's all. Founder of http://www.sfgamnation.com

I just think it isn't fair to one day ticket holders. If they offered ERT for passholders during closed to the public hours, then I don't see a problem with it. Having all day just for passholders when the park is open just doesn't seem right to me.
My opinion of course. I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
^And I respect that. Maybe they'll have a Goliath ERT before or after the park opens later on this summer for season pass holders.

They are having Discover Card/Season Pass holder ERT nights on June 8, 2014, July 13, 2014 and August 10, 2014. I suspect that if the Goliath is open by then they will have ERT on Goliath.

You also have to think that pretty much every passholder would be at the park on that day if they still did the ERT. Which means the line would still spill out on the midway. You would be lucky to get maybe 2 rides on it. In reality it wouldn't be what we consider ERT where you can ride alot.

Carlo. Basically the same thing as Coasters after Dark. Once again barely getting much ride time because alot of SP holders show up.

You where really the only person who thought there was going to be a "Season Pass Holder Preview" At no time did the park ever say there was going to be a Season Pass holder preview. 
And some of you need to get over this "We should get perks" with our season pass. You pay about $150 including parking to visit the park as many times as you want. That is a kickass deal itself.

If so then I am sorry if that is the case. However I am not sure if I was the only one here who thought there would be one, considering it has been talked about frequently in the forums before. And if I was the only one who thought there would be one I was misinformed. Thanks for setting things straight for me. Favorite Coasters I've Ridden:

Brandon Bruce told me back in December that they were planning one and right before he left unexpectedly early last month, he said they were for sure having one when replying to an email of mine. With that said, I understand that plans can change any time and since the park never announced it to the public, it shouldn't have been expected. Chitown, we are promised perks when purchasing a pass and we get them with coupons and ERT sessions. We know (or at least we should know) that what were are already getting is a good deal. It just would've been cool to have a pass preview day. Not whining about it, just saying my opinion. Founder of http://www.sfgamnation.com

Ok, I understand that there isn't a SPP. So, if the ERT that comes with the shirts is in June, is it still supposed to have a grand opening in May?
Check out my Coaster vids
http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_o4Mtg8LDHpRuK7rRKMdAQ It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle  Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU?   (Sorry in advance for unnecessary commas and parenthesis every where)
Media Day is still scheduled for May 29. "Heavily medicated for your safety"
The only to things that the park has announced is the media day and the gold ticket event. There has been no announcement of when the ride will open.

How come they are not doing a season pass preview anymore!? I was planning on going there next Friday with my family and friends who have season passes. I am VERY MAD that there won't be a season pass preview anymore.
